Jesse Jones, colored, unearthed a
32-pound bomb shell, and attempted
to open it on Sunday evening last, at
his home near Bolivar. The shell
bursted and the powder and flying
pieces of iron injured the following

Agnes Jones, foot mangled so badly
as to necessitate amputation; Will
Jones, limb broken; Ed. Pole, leg
broken and jaw greatly torn; VIM.
Turner, foot mangled; Jesse Jones,
two fingers broken, and -- Will
lis was slightly burnt. It is thought
the shell contained about 10 pounds
of powder. The explosion was heard
several miles away. Jones' house

The present condition of the plant,
73 per cent. as compared with
fair average, indicates exceeding
ly discouraging prospects for the
wheat harvest of next year.
The present low condition of
wheat represents, compared with Il
fair average, about eight millions
of bushels, and adding to this about
five millions represented by the
shortage in acreage as compared
with last year, the present pro-
liabilities are that the wheat har-
vest for 1888 will be some thirteen
millions ofbushels below an aver
age product.
If the condition of the plant
should improve even to fair aver
age which is not at all probable
from present appearances, there
will still be the shortage on account
of low area, and the harvest must
inevitably be smallest for many
years.
The estimated corn product is
placed at GO per cent. of Il far aver
age, being per cent. less than the
estimate made November 1st.
Owing to the low price of cattle,
the number being fed for Spring
market is much smaller than
usual.

He Hedged on Il Handsled.

Mr.. Frank has brought his chill
dren up to believe faithfully in a
veritable Santa Clause, but there
was one small seceder who thought
for himself and rejected the nur-
sery belief. When Christmas Eve
came last year he confided to his
mother his doubts and fears.
81 just b'leeve that I don't b'leeve
in any Santa Clause.,' he said grave
ly, "though sometimes, mamma, /
don't b'leeve l know what L do
b'leeve."
Later in the evening when the
whole family were assembled in
parlor, the door opened and gen
uine Santa Claus entered. Little
Phil looked around with an in
credulous grin and counted the
members of his tribe. They We're
all present, and each one had a re-
quest to give Santa. Phil kept up
his unbelief and Santa turned to
go. AS he turned into the hall,
fear and doubt struggled in the
small boys mind. He didn't be-
lieve in any such parsonage, but
he hated to take any chances. His
feet wiggled, and at last he slid
from his chair and ran after the
disappearing figure. AS the pat
ron of Christmas reached the from t
door he heard II very beseeching
voice gasp at his heels:
